Our Empanadas

We specialize in baked empanadas. The Classic Empanada de Pino is prepared with Niman Ranch beef and cage free eggs. The Pollo Empanada is prepared with Mary’s Free Range chicken. The Vegan Empanada recipe was specifically created to taste like the Chilean classic, without animal products, using the meat-like consistency product Yves Meatless Ground. Vegans and vegetarians can experience the Classic Chile Lindo Empanada.

Our Café

We offer excellent quality coffee at an affordable price. From house brewed to espresso, we serve freshly roasted Caffe D’Melanio Gourmet Coffee, purchased from a family-owned, local, coffee roasting business. We also have a selection of quality teas.

Pan Amasado

Pan amasado literally translates to kneaded bread, alluding to freshly handmade bread. It is one of the quintessential Chilean buns. Chileans looooooove bread.

Alfajores

Chile Lindo’s gourmet alfajores are made with hand-kneaded dough. Each wafer is individually cut and baked to a crisp. We spread a generous amount of manjar (dulce de leche) to assemble the alfajores and then roll each in grated coconut.

Torta de Mil Hojas

La Torta de Mil Hojas or “Chile’s Thousand-Layered Cake” is another authentic Chilean recipe made with manjar (dulce de leche). Like so many Chilean recipes—it is a labor of love. The dough is made from egg yolks, flour, and a splash of orange juice. Once kneaded, the dough is rolled out very thinly and with a cutting wheel it is cut into 12-inch discs. Each is subsequently individually baked to a crisp. This process is repeated a thousand times, after which the cake is assembled by spreading manjar and sprinkling crushed walnuts between layers. The cake is finally covered in manjar and walnuts.
